Our friends, MeTalkPretty, are being featured on MTV2.com (check out the Ourstage section.) You can listen to 2 tracks from their soon-to-be-released debut album, We Are Strangers, on Eight o Five / Universal Music. Details are currently being worked out for a MeTalkPretty/megaphone week-long Florida tour this summer.

The website Rockbandaid.com, your source for all things Rock Band, posted a feature interview with us on April 5th. These guys are ultra cool and totally have their fingers on the pules of the video game craze that is Rock Band. To have these guys feature us is really an honor. It’s a great interview and they really ask some great questions.

“Continuing their trend of good fortune into 2010, megaphone is releasing tracks on the RBN, and currently has three songs available in the Rock Band Network: “Not Your Enemy,” “Gravitate,” and “My Favorite New Disaster.”  I got a chance to talk to the band about themselves, their music, and the Rock Band Network.”

Check it out!

G4 TV did a segment about the PAX East conference, a video game conference in Boston. As they were talking with Harmonix about the new Rock Band Network, they showed clips of someone scrolling through the store menu alphabetically and Not Your Enemy and Disaster are right next to each other. It was really quick but we noticed it. Later, they showed another clip of someone scrolling through artists and it showed “megaphone” with all three songs underneath.

Every once in a while in the Rock Band blog, the Harmonix developers pick their favorite RBN songs. One of them picked Gravitate. Here’s what they said: megaphone - “Gravitate” - I really like the chorus on “Gravitate”. There’s a cool guitar riff that kicks it off each time, and the melody is just fun to sing.
